CHILDREN ART CLUB, FEBRUARY 2015 EDITION

The February
edition of the CHILDREN ART CLUB was a success. The CHILDREN ART CLUB is
endorsed by InSEA (www.insea.org), powered by the TEACHING VISUAL ART with
support from Olumo Art Movement.

The February
edition was held on Saturday 21st February at the usual venue, the Cultural and
Musical Heritage Centre, OLUMO ROCK, Ikija, Abeokuta, Ogun State. Registration
started by 9am; the Art session commenced by 10am and ended around 1pm. The
CHILDREN ART CLUB is stipulated to hold every 3rd Saturdays of the month. The
next edition comes up on Saturday 21st day of March 2015.

The CHILDREN
ART CLUB was established to make ART EDUCATION and ART PRACTICE accessible and
affordable (absolutely free) for the Nigerian children irrespective of their
social background, status or religion affiliation. It is meant to improve and
expand access to Art education in such that the children of our nation will
receive a broad and balanced education. The essence is to create a springboard
to help the children on their voyage of discovery and self-expression.

The CHILDREN
ART CLUB is an outlet for self-expression, started in January 2015 to unlock
talents, encourage aspirations, and nurture creativity. It is a creative
platform for every child to help them harness, maximize and express unhindered
their God's given potentials in a serene environment that inspire creativity.
The CHILDREN ART CLUB platform is to grant the talented children the access to
the best, most-stimulating and most-rewarding artistic engagements that includes;

Teaching and learning
of art techniques under the guidance of a working artists and art educators.

Share art ideas with
their peers.

Hands-on workshops with diverse
studio artists and art educators.

Building portfolio and
Participating in national and international Art contests.

Showcase their talents
and skills through Art Exhibitions.

Virtual documentation
of the children's Art works
and media exposure.

It is a
platform where we can reach each child through art as a therapy, empowerment
and personal talent development. At the February edition, the children were
made to create wearable arts with white t-shirts. It was fun and the children
enjoyed the remarkable moment of creating art on ready-to-wear shirts. The
facilitators include Alhaji Adeleye, Mr. Kehinde H., and Prince Olusegun
Adeniyi with a visiting artist, Lanre Tejuoso. We had the presence of the
following special guests; Mr. Segun Coker, the president of the School of
Virtue (SOV); Mr. Seyi Oladimeji (SLAD), the Director of programmes, OGTV; and
the Public Faces Magazine team lead by Miss Bola Solate. Public Faces Magazine
is to give media support to the project. We appreciate them all. We will also
like to say thank you to the president of Olumo Art Movement, Mr. Kola
Anidugbe.

You too can
be part of it; volunteer, participate, sponsor or partner with the TEACHING
VISUAL ART to bring continued Art resources for the advancement of Art
practice, theory and appreciation in the nation of ours, Nigeria.
